Miner's Ace Hardware

In 1956 brothers Lee and Glen Miner opened a hardware store in Grover Beach immediately west of the current location at 1056 W. Grand Ave. They were carrying on a family tradition, as their parents, Abe and Bee Miner, already owned a hardware store in Culver City. With the help of their first employee who can still be found working at the Grover Beach store the Miner's embarked on a journey that would ultimately become a seven store Ace Hardware chain.
